Too many factors spoil the sauce, one bad factor tears down all the other factors percentages. You just can't apply factors hap hazard. I don't find at all that Benfords Law accurately predicts the percentages of BPP.


The only way to include many factors is if they have very similar or near similar percentages. No two people collect data the same way, I.e. they don't have the same contenders, pace lines, or choices of races played etc. etc.


Most have a very high percentage of errors in their method of data collection, especially inconsistency.
